Early DraftKings CFB DFS Lineup Picks: Daily College Fantasy Football (11/25/23)

Mike's DraftKings daily fantasy college football lineup picks for the early slate on Saturday (11/25/23). His CFB DFS lineup picks and DFS sleepers will help you win.

This is the last week of the last great college football season. We still have a dozen games for our last big DraftKings tournament. Don't worry, I'm not abandoning you. I will be here for all of the bowl game slates and college basketball. We've still got a lot of fun ahead of us!

We begin with the Commonwealth Cup in Louisville. We have Pitt in Durham to take on Duke. Houston heads to Orlando to take on UCF. LSU hosts A&M in Red Stick. We have The Game in The Big House. SMU hosts Navy to end the early window. Afternoon brings Colorado to Salt Lake to take on the Utes. BYU heads to Stillwater to take on Oklahoma State. Vanderbilt heads to Knoxville to take on the Vols. We have the Territory Cup in Tempe. The Iron Bowl from Auburn. We end this with the Apple Cup from Seattle. Wow, what a slate!

In this article, I will provide you with my daily fantasy college football lineup picks for DraftKings on 11/25/23, locking at noon Eastern. I’ll provide multiple player suggestions for players at quarterback, running back, and wide receiver, aiming to highlight one option at the high, middle, and lower end of the salary scale. Good luck, RotoBallers.

DraftKings CFB DFS Picks - Quarterbacks

Jayden Daniels, LSU ($11,000)

Daniels is expensive, but his numbers are unbelievable even by video game standards. Daniels has 133.4 DraftKings points in the last two games alone. Some quarterbacks on this slate don't have that on the entire season! In the game before these two recent unbelievable ones, he put up 41.06 on Alabama. A&M's defense is one of the better ones that he'll face, but I'm not betting against him right now in cash games.

John Rhys Plumlee, Central Florida ($8,200)

Since his return in Week 8, Plumlee has only been under 20 DraftKings points once. His rushing ability keeps the floor high. After seeing what Oklahoma State did to Houston's defense last week, this feels like the place to use Plumlee. UCF would rather run than pass, and he is still a big part of the running game.

Jaylen Henderson, Texas A&M ($6,400)

Henderson has been more productive than Max Johnson was, but that's not saying much. One of those was against Abilene Christian, so how much stock can we put into that? Henderson is scoring touchdowns and not making mistakes. I'll take that for this price against a still-maligned LSU defense.

Also consider: Jalen Milroe, Alabama ($9,500); Cameron Ward, Washington State ($8,800); Joe Milton, Tennessee ($7,500); Devin Leary, Kentucky ($6,200)

DraftKings CFB DFS Picks - Running Backs

Ollie Gordon, Oklahoma State ($9,000)

Oklahoma State fell behind early again last week, but they didn't abandon Gordon. They came back and won the game. Shocker! If you have the best back in the nation, you damn well better use him. Don't expect the Pokes to make the mistake of not using him again anytime soon. This is another dream matchup for Gordon. He should flirt with 200 yards again.

RJ Harvey, Central Florida ($7,200)

Ollie Gordon went nuts on Houston last week. I expect a repeat from Harvey. Texas Tech did a good job on Harvey last week, but he still salvaged his day with a couple of receptions and a couple of touchdowns. Harvey has at least 20 DraftKings points in all four games since the Oklahoma game. This is his offense. John Rhys Plumlee just lives in it.

Ja'Quinden Jackson, Utah ($5,300)

Colorado's run defense has been abused all season long. Bryson Barnes will run some as the quarterback, but I'll spend less on a dedicated running back and feel better about it. Jackson is a threat for 100 yards and a touchdown. At this price, sign me up!

Also consider: Blake Corum, Michigan ($8,400); Cameron Skattebo, Arizona State ($5,700); Jonah Coleman, Arizona ($5,300); Jaylen Wright, Tennessee ($5,200); LJ Johnson, SMU ($4,800)

DraftKings CFB DFS Picks - Wide Receivers

Malik Nabers, LSU ($9,600)

It makes sense that with Daniels putting up ridiculous numbers Nabers would too. However, Nabers was putting up these ridiculous numbers before Daniels took over college football. Nabers hasn't been under 20 DraftKings points since the opener against Florida State. Even when Daniels looked somewhat mortal, Nabers did not. He is the elite receiver this year.

Tetairoa McMillan, Arizona ($6,800)

McMillan has 17 receptions for 223 yards and a pair of touchdowns in the last two games. The volume has been there for McMillan all season. Now the big plays are starting to catch up. He and Noah Fifita work very well together and are going to make Arizona a formidable foe in the Big Whatever-the-hell-they-are next year.

Javon Baker, Central Florida ($6,000)

The Knights don't pass a lot, but when Baker is putting up 100-yard games on four or five catches, you don't need to. Baker has topped 100 yards four times this year and only once has he needed five receptions to do it. He is 92 yards shy of a 1,000-yard season and you know the Knights would like to get that for him. They should be able to against the Houston secondary.

Rivaldo Fairweather, Auburn ($3,700)

Fairweather has quietly hauled in eight passes for 134 yards in the last three games. Not bad for a guy at his price. It's even better when you consider that four of those eight receptions have resulted in touchdowns. He is the best red-zone target for Auburn right now and it's not close. He will be heavily involved in some way against Alabama.

Also consider: Marvin Harrison Jr., $9,000); Rome Odunze, Washington ($8,500); Lincoln Victor, Washington State ($6,800); Josh Kelly, Washington State ($6,300); Brennan Presley, Oklahoma State ($5,900); Elijhah Badger, Arizona State ($5,700); Ramel Keyton, Tennessee ($4,300)

DraftKings CFB Stacks:

Central Florida

They are priced right and they are playing Houston. Plumlee and RJ Harvey are two guys I will be overweight on. In my UCF stack line, I will add Javon Baker and either Kobe Hudson or Xavier Townsend. Townsend is even getting some carries as the Knights think of creative ways to get him the ball. He's a nice upside play in GPPs at only $4,700.

Tennessee

Vanderbilt's defense has been awful for the last three months or so. A Milton/Wright/Keyton and Squirrel White stack will only set you back about $22,700. That leaves you $27,300 for a RB, a WR, a Flex, and a Superflex. That's a hell of a lineup build!

Also consider: Arizona, Utah, Oklahoma State
